Update to the below – you know I said I had two extra events I wasn’t allowed to reveal? Well I can now reveal one of them – I’m speaking at the Hay on Wye Literary Festival in May. I could NOT be more excited! This is a festival I’ve been to lots in my other role as a publicist but it’s the first time I will have spoken there.

It’s a panel event about the Paranormal and I’m speaking with two amazing other authors, CJ Daugherty, author of the best-selling Night School series, and Sally Green, whose astonishing debut Half Bad came out earlier this year.

I’ve been REALLY rubbish about posting on my news page but my new year’s resolution is to be better about it!

First bit of news – I will be speaking at the first ever UK YA Literary Conference alongside a stellar line up including Malorie Blackman, Patrick Ness, Derek Landy, James Dawson, Sophie McKenzie and many others. More information here: http://www.childrenslaureate.org.uk/news-and-blog/news/84/
